THE UNITED MERCANTILE TRAVEL LERS' ASSOCIATION and LIFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY, for Granting of Aliment Money in Case of Sickness, and securing Annuities to Aged Travellers, and Endowments to their Widows and Children; and establishing a Charitable Relief Fund for the benefit of Distressed Commercial Travellers, Clerks, and Buyers in Wholesale Trades; and for mutual Assurance of Lives and Survivorships, and the Purchase and Sale of Reversionary Property and Interests. To no class of persons are the advantages of Life Assurance so ap. plicable, and yet so little maturely considered and appreciated, as by Commercial Travellers. It Is, indeed, a matter orsurprise, that amongst so numerous and influential a body of men, possessing adequate incomes, and of increasing responsibility an d i mportance, no Society on the basis of Mutual Assurance has been formed, for providing against the casual. ties of being deprived of health, or being incapacitated by age from pursuing their previous avocation This Society has originated with commercial men, sensible of the importance of Assuring, to meet such possibilities; to provide a Property for themselves, their Widows, and Children against the vicissitudes of life; and especially for the purpose of estabflshing, from a portion of the profits of the Society, a perma nent Fund for the Relief of Distressed Travellers, and those en. gaged in Commercial pursuits. Table. are preparing, uhder the sanction of eminent mathematicians and experienced actuaries, to provide, on the principle of Mutual Amur_ ance, by payment of given premiums— Of an income in case of sickness. Of an Annuity, to commence at a given age, or the receipts of a cer tain sum in lieu of such Annuity; or a sum at death to the Assured, or to the widow or child or children of the Assured. Other Tattles will be formed, on the most approved and desirable scale, for general Assurance of Lives and Survivorships, embracing all contingencies incident to life. The premiums will be on the lowest possible scale, consistent with the stability of the Society. Although the Society will confine the Assurers, on the provision in case of sickness, to Commercial Travellers, Clerks, and Buyers of Whole sale Merchants and Traders, yet the advantages connected with this Society hold out to the public at large the benefit of Assurance on Lives and Survivorships, or contingencies dependent on the duration of human life, equal, if not greater, than other establishments. The Society, basing its operations on the strictest principles of economy, relies on the support of the Mercantile Interest, and especially on the Commercial Travellers, by whose exertions the objects of the Society may be extended to an unprecedented extent. The funds of the Society will be vested in the names of Trustees of the first rank, and the management placed with Directors, to be chosen from Merchants and Principals Gf Houses in London, of influence, re. spectability, and wealth. Local Commit tees will, in like manner, be formed at Liverpool, Birmingham, Manchester, Sheffield, Leeds, Bris tol, and Norwich. One-fifth of the whole profits of the Society, at the end of every year after the first five years, are to be divided on equitable principles— four-fifths amongst the Assured of five years' standing, in reduction of premiums ; and one.fifth for the establishment of a fund to be applied solely for the charitable relief of decayed or distressed Commercial Travellers and Mercantile Men, as well as any funds derived from do nations, bequests, or other charitable subscriptions. The importance of this Society must be evident to all engaged in mer cantile pursuits; and the Society looks with confidence to the co-opera tion of Gentlemen of rank and influence throughout England, in pro_ rooting its prosperity ; and who are invited to permit their names to he added to the Provisional Committee, already formed in Landon, for carrying the objects of the Society into immediate operation.

Rowland Hill, Esq. C. H. Clay, Esq. George Whitcomb, Esq. BA NEERS — Messrs. Wright and Co., Covent-garden ; Messrs. Currie, Cornhill. This Company has been formed chiefly for the purpose of ad vancing Sums of Money on the Security of Landed and other Real Property, in the several Colonies and Settlements of Australasia, in a manner well calculated to prove beneficial to the Colonists, and extremely advantageous to its Proprietors. The Colonial Banks are precluded, by their Deeds of Settlement, end by local Ordinances, from the granting of such Advances, and much other valuable M oney B us i ness, and the current rate of Inte rest now charged by individuals, upon Advances on Real Securities, in the Australasian Colonies, is from Ten to Twenty per Cent. The principal operations of the Company will be the granting of Advances upon the Mortgage of Landed Property —upon the depo sit of Title Deeds and Warrants of Merchandise in Bond, and ur on other bona-fide and really tangible Securities generally; but much other safe and profitable business may also be transacted by the Company, which it is unnecessary to particularise here. The affairs and business of the Society will be conducted under the superintendence of a Board of Directors, to be elected from the Shareholders in London, and in the Colonies by Agents, and other persons duly qualified, who will be appointed by the said Board ; and, in every arrangement, the strictest regard will be paid to economy. The Shares to be comprised in the First Series, are to be paid up as follows, viz.:-- 101. per Share at the time of subscribing. 10/. ditto in Three Months from that date. 10/. ditto in Six do. do. And 101. ditto in Nine do. do. And the Shares of the Second and Third Series will be first offered, proportionately and at par, to the Shareholders of the Company.

The extraordinary success which the introduction of asphaltum has met with on the continent, together with the enormous premiums which the shares of the foreign asphaltum Companies bear, and the high divi dends which the proprietors are realizing, fully justify the introduction of a similar article in this country. In the metropolis, where extensive trials of Asphalte pavement have been made, there are already many Companies in existence for the purpose of its general introduction; but to no town in the kingdom will the employment of this material be more valuable than to Birmingham. The absence of flagged footpaths in many of the principal and most of the other streets of Birmingham has long, in the estimation of visi tors, been a great drawback to the general appearance of the town. The scarcity, and consequently the high price of flag-stone, is the cause of this great defect, to remedy which, and for the introduction of this valuable material, for the many purposes to which it is applicable, is the object of this Company. Its tenacity when first made enables it to be applied in every form for the purposes of building, roofing, flooring terraces, footways, the con struction of water tanks, and to most other purposes to which stone, slate, cement, &c., have been used. It effectually resists atmospheric heat, cold, damp, water, &c., and can be manufactured at a much cheaper rate than any cement yet discovered. It is proposed at the commencement of the operations of the Company to use the Foreign Asphalte, but it has been satisfactorily ascertained by experiments that material containing all the properties of the Foreign Asphalte is found in great abundance in England, and a portion of it in the vicinity of Birmingham. As soon as the shares are disposed of, and deposits paid, a Meeting of the Shareholders will be convened to appoint Directors. Should the whole of the shares not be disposed of, the deposits will be returned in full. Applications for shares to be made, post paid, to the Secretary, care of Messrs.

AT a numerous and highly respectable PUBLIC MEETING of the Inhabitants of Manchester and its vicinity, convened by the Boroughreeve and Constables, and held this day in the large room of the Town-hall, to take into consideration the propriety of petitioning Parliament for the immediate, entire, and unqualified aboli tien of the system of Negro Apprenticeship in the British Colonies, and t , f adopting such other measures as may tend to the attainment of that important object, JOHN BROWN, Esq., Boroughreeve, in the Chair; The following resolutions were passed:- 1. That this meeting is fully convinced—as well from official docu ments and other authentic testimony, as from the express admissions of her Majesty's Ministers--that, either with the positive sanction, or with the indirect connivance, of colonial law, those provisions of the Appren ticeship Act which were more especially designed for the advantage of the negro, have been generally and flagrantly violated. 2. That this country has had abundant proof that no remedy for the evils of slavery will ever be impartially and faithfully applied by per sons who consider themselves benefitted by its continuance, and who arc incapable, from the habits of society, and from the general tone of public feeling in the colonies, of properly estimating the peculiar mise ries of a state of bondage: and that this meeting, therefore, deeply regrets that the 'louse of Commons has, by its rejection of Sir George Strickland's motion for the immediate termination of the apprenticeship system, and by the adoption in its stead of a Bill for the amendment of the Act of 1833, again confided the honour of the nation, and the in. tetests of the slave, into the hands of the colonists; and that this re gret is greatly increased by the consideration that the Imperial Legis lature, having, in the measure recently passed, admitted the principle that it was right to contravene many essential provisions of the Aboli fen Act, did not embrace the opportunity of dispensing ample and effec. loaf justice to all parties concerned. 3. That this meeting, firmly persuaded that the immediate, entire, and insqualified abolition of the apprenticeship system is the only safe and certain cure for the evils acknowledged to exist, and that such a measure would not only be compatible wills the interests of the planters, but is necessary to their true and permanent properity, rejoices to learn that Sir Eardley Wilmot has pledged himself to introduce a motion into the }louse of Commons having in view that object, during the present Ses_ si , n of Parliament. 4. That the address to the Queen, and the petitions to both Houses of Parliament, now produced, be signed by the Boroughreeve and Consta bl:s on behalf of this meeting ; that his Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex be most respectfully requested to present the petition to the !louse of Lords ; that the Right Honourable Charles Poulett Thomson be requested to present the petition to the House of Commons, and to give it his strenuous support; and that Mark Philips, Esq., the other representative of the borough of Manchester, Lord Francis Egerton, and the Honourable Richard Bootle Wilbraham, the representatives of the southern division of the county of Laucaster, and Joseph Brotherton, Esq. the representative of the borough of Salford, be also earnestly solicited t i support its prayer. 5. That, in petitioning for the immediate termination of the appren. tics-hip system, this meeting is conscious that it asks for but a very small instalment of the debt due to the slave for the injustice and cruelty so long practised upon him ; and that this meeting feels bound to declare that not only is he entitled to future unrestricted freedom, but also to full reparation for all the wrongs and sufferings which he has endured--claims as clear and undisputable as are the most sacred pri vikges of the white subjects of the British crown. 6. That the following gentlemen he appointed a Committee, for the Purpose of carrying these resolutions into effect, and giving them due Publicity:—The Boroughreeve and Constables, Mr. William Atkinson, Ur. T. Percival Bunting, Mr. W. R. Callender, Mr. Josh. Crewdson, Mr. Isaac Crewdson, Mr. Peter Clare, Mr. John Marsden, Mr. Benjamin Pearson, Mr. Thomas Townend, and Mr. James Wood. JOHN BROWN, Chairman. The Boroughreeve having left the chair, John Ferguson, Esq., the Senior Constable, was called to it, when it was moved by PETER CLARE, Esq., seconded by JOSEPH A DSHE AD, Esq , and resolved, 7. That the cordial thanks of this meeting arc due, and are hereby pr , sented. to the Boroughreeve and Constables of Manchester, for the willingness and promptitude with which they have convened this the first meeting of the inhabitants of Manchester in their collective ca.. Pacity upon the subject of colonial slavery ; and to th e B orou ghreeve also, fo r the able and impartial manner in which he has presided over the business of the day. JOHN FERGUSON.

" May it We, the inhabitants of the borough person and throne, and the munici pal authoiities, humbly beg to offer to your Majesty the assurance of our of Mancheste i r ) , le a a of our attachment to those great and enduring unabated and devoted loyalty to your Majesty's principles which, by the blessings of Providence, have established your Majesty's royal house in the government of these realms. " While, however, we rejoice in the protection and tt, liberty which the inhabitants of this f avoured land increasin g l y enjoy: regret that the principles w hich have secured our freedom have deeplynot yet been extended to that large p ortion of y our Ma j est y' s su bjects in th who, entitled equally with ourselves to the benefits of the British Colonies Con. stitution, and fully capable of appreciating them, have nevertheless long but patiently suffered under the oppressive yoke of slavery. "At would be easy to urge your Majesty's careful consideration of the claims of a race so numerous and interesting on grounds of national ad. vantage ; and far easier, by the narration of their co ntinued sufferings, to excite those feelings o f com p assion, by a displa y of wh ich your Majesty has already secured the warmest affection of your p eop l e ; but we feel confident that your Maje st y 's j ud g ment and s y m p ath y w ill alike be e feel most powerfully moved by an appeal to that strict and unalterable • ' justice which it is your Majesty's high prerogative to administer. " We are firmly persuaded that 'no man can hold property in man;' and that slavery, besi des violating this essential law of Him,, b kings reign and prin ces decree justice,' involves the perpetrationywhom of every other crime which can degrade either the agents or the victi • • ms of the system. And we feel equally assured that however humane may have been the intention of the framers of the act of abolit ion , passed in 3318 , old the operation of t hat measure has been to perpetuate all those and listed evils, against which the people of this country • • so indignantly and universally remonstrated, rendered only more odious by the promise of relief and the pertinacity with which too many of the colonists still adhere to their former unrighteous policy. ~ I . the maintenance of our uncompromising opposition to this sys tem of crime, we cannot consent to be influenced by any considerations of temporary or partial expediency. We rest the claims and merits of our cause upon the Principle that nothing that is morally wrong can be politi. cally right. And if the existence of a compact be alleged bi n di ng us t o behold, without Pit y or complaint, evils which it is in the power of this great nation to rein e d your Majesty's Royal we refer to the measure whi c h h as recen tly re ceivedoyal assent, containing clauses directly opposed to many of the most important ~ Deeply impresmi with these sentiments, we most humbly entreat yo ur Maj graciou s attention to the present condition and prospects of the slave population in the British Colonies. We humbly submit that it will be impossible for your Majesty rightly to estimate the nature and ma gnitude of their s ufferings, without feeling your Majesty's wonted interest in the distresses of your subjects, and exerting that commanding influence with which--in mercy not more to your Majesty than to the people of your h g C..ar it has ple as ed Almighty God to intrust you, in ' unbinding the heavy burden' and ' in letting the opp ressed g o free.' ‘. May your Majesty long live in the possession of the blessin g s which your Majesty pm, enjoys, enhanced by the consciousness that your Ma j..sty reigns over a People uni thousands of the n eg ro race, not the least happy and intelligent of your Majesty's subjects, ascribe their freed.in and felicity to your Majesty's g racious in qu i ry into their case, and benevolent interference in their favour." m GEON.
